They were trying so hard to convince the IWC that that was a work by mentioning ROH.
Reaching back a bit, for years I thought that HBK's passing out during the match with Owen was real.
The Chyna thing that Tovo mentioned too, for the same reasons. It just looked too shitty to be a work. Guess more than one person didn't count on how god awful Chyna is.
As an aside, I used to work with this complete idiot who, along with believing that Rikishi and Yokozuna were the same person, told everyone he knew that Austin was legit hit by a car.
Additionally, for a long time I thought that Hulk Hogan was actually a good guy.
